i need something hot and spicyyy....
>> Sunday, December 21, 2008
Weather has been really cold these days.. there were nights when it went down to 0'C.. every night i crave for something really hot and spicy... then i thought of MAMA.. sigh~.. how i wish i can have them every night..
i went to the oriental market and actually found mama... it cost my 99 cents per packet.. but what the heck.. i bought two packets... (coz i think it's too expensive..)
It looks quite the same with those in thailand.. but if u observe carefully.. there's some difference..
one difference spotted!!.. mama in chinese..
direct translation to english .. "mother"
"oriental style instant noodles shrimp flavor (tom yum)"
i'm glad i bought just two packets!!!!
because it's for export only!!!!.. and u know what happen to "for-export-only" product?!?.. they tone down the spiciness of it!!!!.. arghh!!!.. it was really a disappointing one.. it's like i'm eating maggie ayam flavor okay!.. oklah.. i exagerated a lil there.. haha.. but yeah.. it's nothing like the ones i had in thailand.. i remember eating mama and sweat like anything in thailand.. sometimes i even put just half packet of the chili powder becuase it was too spicy.. they might as well change the whole packaging and put " NOT SPICY" in front lah.. haih.. so sad for those Thai people here..
